Accellion,
Inc., the award-winning pioneer in providing enterprise-class,
secure mobile file sharing solutions, today announced 1 in 3 law firms
on the AmLaw100,
1 in 3 of the top 100 law firms in the NLJ350 and more than 1 in 4 of
the law firms on the American Lawyer Global100 list are Accellion
customers. The sensitivity of information handled by law firms, combined
with compliance and security concerns over the increasing use of mobile
devices and BYOD, are driving the need for secure mobile file sharing
solutions by legal firms around the globe.

“Our employees embraced the productivity gains from mobile devices, and
successfully leverage ubiquitous access to digital data,” stated Andrew
Jurczyk, CIO Seyfarth Shaw, LLP. “At the same time, we have an
obligation to our clients to make absolutely certain that their critical
information is transported and resides in a secure, managed and
trackable manner. Accellion addresses both needs very well.”

“Legal firms are one of the fastest growing market segments for
Accellion,” said Paula Skokowski, Chief Marketing Officer at Accellion.
“While growth in usage of mobile devices is driving demand for secure
file sharing solutions across industries, legal firms along with
organizations in regulated industries, are becoming increasingly aware
of the need to protect confidential information access and sharing on
mobile devices.”

Accellion Chief Marketing Officer, Paula Skokowski, will lead a panel on “Protecting
Legal Documents in the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Post PC Era”
with Chris Zegers, CIO of Lowenstein Sandler, Chad Ergun, Director of
Global Services & Business Intelligence at Gibson & Dunn and Avi
Solomon, Director of IT at Becker and Poliakoff P.A. at the Law
Firm Chief Information and Technology Officers Forum. The panel will
take place on Wednesday, January 30, 2013 from 11:30 a.m. – 12:15 p.m.
ET in conjunction with the LegalTech
New York 2013 conference.

Accellion will also be exhibiting at the LegalTech New York 2013
